i have to say my solo2 did have a great picture on SD channels until recently. my Zero SD channels are fantastic picture, which is odd
If your PQ has suddenly changed for the better or worse it's likely the hardware drivers as provided by the manufacturer as they are pretty much the only thing that can affect PQ so drastically.

The picture quality on all of my receivers is Superb on SD and almost as good as HD, and the only time I have any quality problems is because the programs are older recordings or the transmission is not so good
how have you got your receiver set up, do you have it set to Automatic resolution some people set it to 1080p and 60Hz or Multi
but I find that you get better results having it set to 50Hz and 1080i so try changing your settings as that might be all that is wrong

I have to disagree with you, the SD quality well on this E2 box doesnt seem to be as good or better than the sky box.Originally Posted by pheonix
I am really disappointed and annoyed that the quality isnt better on this box for SD channels.
So what am I meant to do then?
As far as I know there is no update from the manufacturer.
Plus it seems people with the same box seem to say the quality of SD channels is good and not average like mine.
My settings are 1080p 60hz.
What is multi mean for refresh rate?
I got told always to change to 1080p resolution as the HD programmes are transmitted through 1080i.
I dont know what settings to do now plus I thought if you TV is capable of the highest possible refresh rate you change to that.
acctually you could be right, as recently i change these setting. will play around with it now and see
60Hz is the USA NTSC tv frequency and 50Hz is UK standard PAL so in the UK your tv should be set to 50Hz PAL but some people use multi because they think that it will make USA recorded programs look better

i change back my settings and there is a slight difference. i was experimenting last couple of weeks. not do that again
some times the only way to find out if it is better is to do like you did and try it, and you can always change back if it dose not work
Oh ok I didnt realise that.
I just thought as it was 60hz it would be best to pick that.
Thats funny you have jokes, you dont need to be rude.
I was asking a serious question.
SD is always average on ANY receiver. Some channels are better than others, but dont expect HD quality out of SD with ANY receiver.

I understand that, but I expected SD quality on channels to be decent especially as this box supposedly has SD up scaling technology.
